Overview

About 2 Kingswood Cottage

A plain-English summary derived from public records, EPC certificates, sold prices and local data.

2 Kingswood Cottage is a two-bedroom mid-terrace house in Lapworth, Solihull, Solihull (B94 6LX). It has a recorded floor area of 61 m² (around 655 sq ft), construction records dating it to before 1900 and council tax band D. It is a listed building, which means external alterations are tightly controlled but it may qualify for heritage tax reliefs. Period features are noted in the property record. Our model identifies extension potential, subject to local planning policy. The latest certificate (August 2009) shows a G (score 13), near the bottom of the EPC scale. The recommended improvements would lift it to E (score 40), a 2-band jump. Main heating runs on electricity. The latest certificate is from August 2009, so improvements made since then won't be reflected.

On energy efficiency it sits in the bottom 10% of properties in this postcode — significant headroom for improvement. 7 planning records sit against the property, 4 approved, 2 refused. Past consents include an extension, meaningful when judging how the property has evolved. Today's modelled estimate of £325,000 is 42.5% above the 2019 sale price. On a £-per-square-foot basis, the last sale (£348/sq ft) was about 35.2% above the typical sold price in the postcode. Last sale on file: £228,000 in October 2019.
